Covalent and ionic Cu(II) complexes with cyclam and substituted benzoato ligands: structural, thermal, redox and mesomorphic properties

A covalent mononuclear complex, [Cu(p-HOC6H4COO)2(cyclam)] (1), and two ionic mononuclear complexes, [Cu(cyclam)(H2O)2](p-CH3OC6H4COO)2 (2) and [Cu(cyclam)(H2O)2](p-CH3(CH2)15OC6H4COO)2·H2O (3), were formed from reaction of cyclam with [Cu2(p-HOC6H4COO)4(H2O)2], [Cu2(p-CH3OC6H4COO)4(H2O)2] and [Cu2(...
